Looking to teach your class how to find the y-intercept of a line using another point and the slope? Consider this video as an instructional tool. Learners can watch as a lecturer demonstrates how to find the y-intercept, using the...

A clear introduction to slope-intercept form, this would be helpful for learners who are struggling with this concept. You might also provide this instructional video for class members to use as they work on homework or class work. A...

If you are given the value for slope (m), and the value for the intercept (b), all you need to do is remember what the slope-intercept form looks like. Y=mx+b. Then you just have to plug the given values into the slope-intercept line of...

You've got a linear system of inequalities? You need to solve it by graphing? No sweat. Make sure that each equation is in slope-intercept form and then graph each equation. Is it a solid line or a dashed line? Which side of the line...

You have a slope and a given point and now you have to graph it. Begin by drawing a graph and then plotting the given point. Remember that slope is rise over run. So from the given point move the appropriate spaces to plot the next...

Fractions and variables on both sides of the equation? Oh my! There are one hundred and one steps to solving this equation. Not really, but now that I have your attention, I recommend you watch this video closely and follow the...

There are a lot of steps in this problem. But just like walking up a flight of stairs, you should take one step at a time, so too in the solving of this problem. The instructor explains each step and what to do to move to the next one.

In a linear equation, the y-intercept is really just the point where the graph of the line crosses the y-axis.

In a linear equation, the x-intercept is really just the point where the graph of the line crosses the x-axis.

So you have a variable on both sides of the equation. How do you solve this kind of equation? Just get like terms together on each side of the equation and then isolate that variable.

Do you know the formula for slope? Yes, rise over run. Then all you have to do is plug in the given values and solve for the slope of the ramp.

The instructor demonstrates how to verify that a given point does or does not lie on the line of a given equation. She draws a graph (the axis lines need arrow ends) and plots the given linear equation. She then plots the coordinate...

The instructor goes through the steps of how to solve for the value of a variable in a two-step equation. Beware, this problem has a negative variable in the beginning.

Your graphing calculator can do lots of amazing things, even solve equations graphically. Young mathematicians learn to solve linear equations by using a graphing calculator. The informative YouTube video shows them how to apply the Zero...

There will be two variables in this equation since a straight line means a linear equation. Writing the equation in slope-intercept form means there is an x-value and a y-value. So let's watch this video and see what it takes to use the...

Two equations, two unknown variables. Use the substitution method to solve for one of the variables. Then plug that value into one of the equations to solve for the other variable. Finally plug both values into one of the original...

Two equations. What's the solution to this system? How can you solve it? Can you write the two equations in slope-intercept form? Yes, you can. Now graph each equation. Look, the lines are parallel. What does that mean? That means there...

Goodness! There are a lot of steps in getting to the final solution in this word problem. Watch this video and follow along as the instructor explains each and every step. There's a scatter plot, a line of fit, writing an equation based...

Given a linear equation, rewrite it in different forms. No matter what form a linear equation is given in, it can be converted to the other forms. So that means every linear equation can be written in standard form, point-slope form and...

Find the x and y intercepts in a given linear equation written in slope intercept form. Piece of cake! There are just two things to do. First, substitute 0 for x and solve to find the y-value. Then substitute 0 for y to find the value of...

The x-intercept is the point at which the line of the equation crosses the x-axis. The y-intercept is the point at which the line of the same equation crosses the y-axis. It's as easy as that. Look at your graph and note these locations.

There are several ways to determine if an ordered pair is the solution to a linear equation. The ordered pair can be plugged in to the equation to check if it's a solution. However, in this video the instructor sets up a table and plugs...

Watch this video to learn how to find the solution to a system of equations with the substitution method! A teacher will lead you through each step necessary, explaining her steps and the reasoning behind her decisions. After watching...

Two equations. What's the solution to this system? How can you solve it? Can you write the two equations in slope-intercept form? Yes, you can. Now graph each equation. Look, the lines intersect. What does that mean? That means that...
